    Of course king you are right you’ve changed my mind, I’m so lucky that I’ve found the only remaining expert in human in dark patterns. You should join the European commissions, all of those posers saying tiktok is addictive they’re just dumdum, there’s no such thing as an addictive app! All of those meta employees calling the app a drug they’re just doing so affectionately!
